Welcome to Prisoners Aid ACT Web Portal
Prisoners Aid ACT aims at a ‘fair go’
for all those involved in the prison system,
including the families of detainees
and those in court facing imprisonment.
Our Services
Support
Families and friends are the most important part of a prisoner's life. We know that things do not always go smoothly in relationships and we have some ways to offer support. Volunteers are not counsellors, but receive ongoing training to offer you the most useful and relevant support.
Volunteers
Volunteers are always welcome! Join our teams! We offer an exciting and challenging environment for people who want to help others. We offer training to help build your skills - there's something for everyone to do, easy and challenging, and not all of our work involves people work.
